There are options to terminate contracts if necessary, and MS has the resources to do so. Zenimax deals, probably not until the deal has been made however all the other games that jumped to other platforms could have easily been canceled. This happens all the time in other industries. 

Proof, Epic Games canceled Metro Exodus from Steam 1 week before its release, and they dont even own the IP or studio.

AFAIK You're under no contractual obligation to release your game on Steam. You merely forfeit the submission fee.

Shows it can happen. We dont know the contract details but Ill be sure majority of games would have similar agreements on consoles, i daubt there would be heavy restrictions on 3rd party games with no influence from major console makers.
